Them!

Starring: Whitmore, James and Gwenn, Edmund

Product Description

Man has split the atom and ushered in a new era. But how could he know he would also create Them? Them! is a landmark movie about giant radiation-mutated ants that gets better with age and boasts remarkable, Academy Award -nominated special effects. Starring James Whitmore, James Arness and Edmund Gwenn, Them! begins in New Mexico with a child wandering in shock, a ransacked general store -- and a battered corpse full of enough formic acid to kill 20 men. It ends with an epic struggle in the 700 miles of storm drains under Los Angeles, where the insect hordes are beaten. But they're not conquered, because they spawned a generation of films about radioactive creatures. Some approximate the terror, but few have equalled the artistry of Them!

Customer Reviews

A movie worth the ant-icipation of.

This film was originally in 3D. they make a 3d version but you have to have the capability to watch Blu-ray 3D; that is DVD, player, TV, and glasses. The formula is Big Bugs, flamethrowers, and screaming women. What happened as an aftereffect of the first atomic bombs? This is a movie about taller-ants. Fess Parker almost gets caught with his pants down. This is not a fly-by-night movie. It is an ant-by-night movie. William Schallert's "Colossus: The Forbid Project” gets to be the Ambulance Attendant. Leonard Nimoy is the Telex operator. If this keeps up, he may find himself on a starship, where he can deal with real ant-imatter. James Arness only wants to help Joan Weldon out of a plane and into the anty-chamber. I watched this several times with my wife. The ants make a noise similar to a loose fan belt. So, every time we pass a car with a loose fan belt, she says, "Get the other antenna." This movie also makes a good background movie. Don't wait for this to go on clear-ants.
